Select one of the five key changes Barno and Bensahel claim will shape the choices and decisions awaiting Pentagon leaders.

David Barno and Nora Bensahel, “Five Ways the U.S. Military Will Change after the Pandemic,” War on the Rocks, April 28, 2020, https://warontherocks.com/2020/04/five-ways-the-u-s-military-will-change-after- the-pandemic/.
The authors assert: “The ultimate damage [from COVID-19] will be so great that after the pandemic, the urgent need to defend the American people from devastating threats inside the homeland will quickly displace foreign threats atop the hierarchy of national security concerns.” Moreover, they claim the U.S. military will need to make at least five key changes that will shape the strategic choices and decisions senior DoD leaders will be forced to make. First, “cyber and space will be higher priorities than land, sea, and air.” Second, “reliance on forward presence will diminish.” Third, “the reserve component will become much more important [than in the past].” Fourth, “legacy programs and end strength will be cut — by a lot.” And, fifth, “the prestige of the U.S. military will be dimmed.”2

Formulate a politically and theoretically relevant empirical research question and describe the research hypotheses that would lead to testing it.

Assessment Instructions

This assignment is split into 2 parts:

Part 1 (1500 words)

Students are required to formulate a relevant empirical research question and hypotheses. Students will have to:

  1. Formulate a politically and theoretically relevant empirical research question and describe the research hypotheses that would lead to testing it. State purpose of the study.
  2. Establish and rationalise a clear causal relationship associated with the research question.
  3. Identify and review relevant literature. What has research related to this question found. Use references appropriately.
  4. Discuss methodology. What are the variables involved in the model, causal relationships, what is the data level, the most appropriate observational data; structure, and the level of measurement of the variables included in the model. What are the strengths and limitations of variables I have chosen, how do they help answer the hypothesis, how are the variables coded, justify the choice of variables. Use other research to help.
  5. Include graphs and measures of central tendency (using RStudio) exploring the causal relationship identified in the research question. Describe fully in the text what the graphs and tables show.

Part 2 (2000 words)

This part requires that you conduct advanced statistical analysis using RStudio and report the results and conclusions. It will require bivariate and multivariate analysis of the causal relationship identified in the “Statistical Assignment I” assessment. Draw conclusions from each analysis separately and relate findings to expectations.

 

 

Key points for whole assignment –

  • The research does not actually need to be carried out, use pre-existing data sets available on data archives such as GESIS-Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences and the UK Data Archive.
  • The assignment should follow the structure of a research paper
  • It should include a short abstract, a bibliography and an appendix (the appendix will be the reproductible RStudio script).
  • Graphs and tables should be included in the main text.

Please send me both the word/pdf file and the RScript.

 

 

 

Create a hypothesis (original hypothesis) on the relationship between the two variables.

The purpose of this assignment is comparing an original hypothesis with a partial result when controlling for a second independent variable. The paper should be written in an essay style and use both the quantitative data (i.e. the regression results) and the existing literature on the topic. This paper is an opportunity to incorporate quantitative data into your research paper and support your argument by quantitative data.
Step 1: Select two variables from the dataset that you want to know about their relationship (make sure both variables are on interval level). The variables must be different from the ones that you used for Assignment II. Create a hypothesis (original hypothesis) on the relationship between the two variables.
Step 2: Conduct a literature review of 5 to 6 scholarly sources about your original hypothesis. The literature should include journal articles, book chapters, published research/census, or research reports.
Step 3: Examine the relationship between the two variables by carrying out a Bivariate Regression. Explain the finding by interpreting the R-square, the Y inception, the Slope, and the Beta of your bivariate output table.
Step 4: Add a second Independent Variable as your control variable (make sure the new independent variable is either interval, correctly coded ordinal, or dichotomous nominal variable). Carry out a Multivariate Regression. Report the results and explain how the control variable affects the original hypothesis. Explain your reasons by interpreting the R-square, the Y inception, the Slope, and the Beta in the Multivariate Regression output table.
Structure: the assignment should be organized in four sections divided by subtitles as follows:
1. Introduction (1-2 pages): introduce the topic, your research question, your original hypothesis and its components (independent, control, and dependent variables), explain the purpose of your research (i.e. testing the original hypothesis by controlling for a second factor). Also explain why you think controlling for a second factor is important in your analysis. Introduce also your methodology (i.e. the literature review and the quantitative method you use for developing the hypothesis). (15%)

2. Literature review and discussions (3-4 pages): read 5 to 6 sources on the original hypothesis and report your finding about the existing knowledge on the issue (30%)

3. Quantitative Research (no page limit): Step 1: carry out a bivariate regression and copy and paste the “Model Summary” and “Coefficients” output tables. Explain what the results tell you about the relationship between the two variables, the strength and direction of the relationship, and its statistical significance. Explain these issues by interpreting the relevant statistics including the R-square, the Y inception, the Slope, the Beta, and the significance). Step 2: Carry out a multivariate regression by adding your second independent variable that you want to control for. Copy and paste the “Model Summary” and “Coefficients” output tables. Explain what the new results tell you about the original hypothesis: how the addition of a third variable affects the original hypothesis? Explain it by comparing the relevant statistics of the two results (i.e. the Adjusted R-square, the Y inception, the Slope, the Beta, and the significance). 40%

4. Conclusion (1-2 pages): Conclude your finding about the original hypothesis and the impact of the control variable on the original relationship. Explain what the comparison of the two results tells you about the importance of multiple regression and controlling for a second factor? Does this finding support or challenge the existing literature on the topic? Outline your main findings from both bivariate and multivariate regression results.
